We hope to build a community of like-minded artists to stand together against AI. #SupportHumanArtists

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@artagainstai We've just changed the name. Using the same name was not in any way intentional, just a misunderstanding as we only checked on Twitter. It's all resolved now so hope we can put any bad feelings behind us 🙂

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

Hello, we are ArtistsAgainstAI 👋

We are a group that is very passionate about safeguarding the future of the arts.

We have just started our page "ArtistsAgainstAI" where we hope to build a community of like-minded artists to stand together against AI!

#SupportHumanArtists

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

Changing our name on here so there is no confusion between us and the Facebook group "Artists Against AI" 🙂

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll @stealcase We have a right to privacy, this doesn’t automatically mean that our intentions are bad or suspicious. We haven’t done anything wrong here, all we’re doing is getting people together. If you don’t want to join us on that basis, that's fine too.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll @stealcase For now all we can do is urge people to support existing efforts like those of the European Guild for AI and the Concept Art Association.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@artagainstai We can change our name to “ArtistAgainstAI” or “ArtAgainstAI” so there’s no confusion. We weren’t aware that there was a Facebook group already using the name as we only checked Twitter. We have no ill intentions, we support your cause 🙂

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@artagainstai Hello! We haven’t stolen the name, we checked on Twitter and there was no active page using it.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll We know there is conversation around this, we are just trying to be part of it and see what can be done if we get enough of us together.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll @stealcase @Egair_official If you feel that there's a community here already then feel free to engage with them and not us. Us not putting a face to the movement doesn't mean our intentions are bad. But I don't think there's a way to convince you of that sadly.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll What do you not believe here? How are we trying to scam artists? We are not asking anything from anyone. We are just trying to get people together to start a conversation irregardless of what kind of artist you are.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll @stealcase @Egair_official If you don't agree with our approach, feel free to not support us.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll @stealcase @Egair_official At this stage we are not talking about strategy. We are just trying to get the people who are concerned about AI together. The discussions on strategies will come at a later stage and may differ depending on where you are in the world.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll We're trying to build something good here, really not sure what the hostility is about. Either way, if you don't want to support us, you're more than welcome not to.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll @Egair_official We've been around for a day, we've not had much of a chance to build a community 😅 We looked around and there doesn't seem to be a single place where all artists can come together to voice their concerns about AI. So that's what we want this account to be.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll But we are part of the community, we are working artists ourselves 🙂 Why would we create a page against AI if we're supposedly AI bros? We are hoping to do good here, and bring people together.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll @Egair_official As for actions artists can take, we are hoping to create a community so we can later take effective action. Be that against companies/employers or urging governments to regulate AI. But first we need to have an actual community of artists.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@stealcase @Rahll What is suspicious about this? No substance? Like we said, we've only been around for a day. We are trying to gather people together, what could possibly be negative about that?

As for policies, we support and closely follow the work that @Egair_official do.

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll If you don’t think you can support us on that basis, that’s ok too. We completely understand 🙂

However, there is nothing to be wary about. We’re just hoping to create a community of artists that are also against AI and want to see a positive change! (5/5)

[ArtAgainstAI @ArtistAgainstAI]

@Rahll The reason we don’t have a face for the movement is because we feel this account isn’t about one individual, it’s about all of us coming together as a collective. That may change in the future but for now we feel this is the best approach. (4/5)
